Pure Gospel
In today’s verse, we see that Paul considered the spread of the gospel the most important part of his life. Notice the words Paul used: what he “received,” meaning he did not create the gospel; and he “passed [it] on,” meaning he did not alter the gospel.
The message Paul delivered is simple and straightforward: the story of the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Christians are often tempted to try to change the gospel to make it more appealing. But when they do that, they weaken the gospel’s message. That’s why Paul reminds us that no matter what we do, the gospel should be what dictates our message—and not the other way around.
We’ve all been given passions and gifts to spread Jesus’ fame in the world. There are many needs we can meet and causes we can champion that’ll let us to use those gifts for God’s glory. Yet, just like Paul, our first priority should be spreading the gospel in everything we do. So as you pursue your Christian walk and unite your passions with causes in this world, never lose sight of what’s most important: the full story of Jesus Christ—the gospel.
Prayer
Lord, wherever I go, may spreading Your fame be my deepest passion.
